Fitness Friday || Running and A Plate

You might remember that in November I found out I made it into the Dirty Dozen as one of the top 12 runners in an 8-month trail race series. I was surprised and so excited since it was the first time I ran more then 1-2 trail races in a year.

Anyway, I wasn’t really expecting to receive anything in recognition of my accomplishment…ok, I admit, I kind of expected a t-shirt. There’s always a t-shirt right? Not this time. So much time had passed I really hadn’t given it much more thought until last weekend. Guess what being one of the Dirty Dozen gets you other than dirty? Not a t-shirt. Not a medal. Not a certificate. A plate! I want to love it because I worked so hard to get it! It’s just not my style at all and I’m not much of a knickknack type of person.

What am I supposed to do with this? Chad says put it on a plate stand in my workout room. Would you? I wonder if it’s dishwasher safe? And, I was #10! Not #11 like the plate says.

What is the most unusual or unexpected award you have ever received? Did you keep it? Toss it? Pack it away in the basement? What would you do with this plate?

Hi Jill thanks for hosting,I love to win t-shirts to add to my collection, I would say defiantly put it on a plate stand you work so hard and how many people have one??!!well done 🙂 I never win much ? 🙁 lol

I once won a Christian Character trophy, when I was in college. The irony is that in all my zeal, I went into the pastor’s office a few weeks prior, telling him how I thought our church should stop giving out the Christian Character award because it promoted pride and not humility.

i think that plate is pretty funny – and yeah, I wouldn’t really know what to do with it either. I’ve never gotten anything like that – the most annoying medal I’ve ever gotten was a cowbell, but that’s only annoying because I mistakenly gave it to my 4 year old who rang it constantly….

Congrats on the plate award! lol. Maybe hang it up on your inspirational board and glue a picture of you over the #11? Don’t really win much of anything, maybe I should enter contests first!
Thanks for hosting blog hop! 🙂
